Spiderman In the City

This cake is for Sean's 3rd birthday party! I don't know if my vision was captured as well as I would have liked, but I'm pleased with the buildings. AND the adorable cars. (Buildings and cars made with fondant.)

Turns out that it is freakishly tough to find a small spiderman figure these days. I had big plans for Spiderman to be standing on the ground shooting a web up to the building, but Spiderman was taller than the buildings so that wasn't going to work. But mom came up with the rooftop angle, and we went with it.

Friendly neighborhood Spiderman...

Father's Day - Poker Cake

Mom asked me to pull a cake together for Father's Day, so I went with the Poker theme since my dad plays several times a week at the Franklin bowling alley. The 1's and 5's are poker chips... apparently that was not clear by the cake-eaters.

Spiderman Cake

This cake was for Sean's third birthday. I tried to do the Spiderman font on the side, but it was really horrific. Spiderman, Spiderman does whatever a spider can...

Nashville Cake

As a salute to a coworker who is retiring and moving to Nashville, we did a country music theme'd party to send him off. They asked me to do the cake on Tuesday afternoon for Thursday lunch. Below is what I came up with. Luckily, most of the imperfections are for my eyes only. Except for when I took it to work and 2 of the clouds fell off because of the heat. Stupid Atlanta heat.

Extra Life Cake

I made this cake for Darryl (my cubemate) and John (my cube neighbor)'s birthdays.  I couldn't think of a good cake idea, but then I was inspired to give them "an extra life."
